Siple card and a give away

Happy Thursday--so glad the week is almost over. It seems I have I have been on the road and in big meetings for the past month for work but all have paid off with some great new business and strong existing sales. Got to love when business is good.
Today I have a simple birthday card to share.

The paper was scraps that I combined with a large store bought accessory. Took only minutes but supplied a last minute card with some punch.  I also added texture with an embossing folder and my cuttlebug.


On to the give away. Sarah and Kyle at Pink By Design are super awesome people and have been kind enough to give me an opportunity to do a give away. Here is how this will work. Be a follower and Leave a comment here and over at the PBD blog (here is a link) and you will have double the chances to win a $25 gift card to the PBD store to pick up some pre holiday goodies. I will announce the winner on Friday so this is a one day give away--so leave the comments and come back to see if you are the winner!

make it a great one-

I'd like to see more guy cards. I recently sold cards at my church's bake sale, and the one thing I was told was that there needs to be more options for guy cards. I have NO clue what to do with that!




Winner #2
Marsha said-


I love the simplicity of this card, although the faux stitching really sets it apart from any other simple card! Very nice!





Winner #3

I agree with others and more layouts. Alot of blogs lately have been focusing on cards which are great but layouts are what I started paper crafting with and I'd like to get back to that. Love all your posts anyhow. Especially all the pictures of your travels. Wish i was as lucky to travel the world like you! Keep up the good work! JenBrierley2 at gmail dot com




Please email me your address to scrapguyblog@yahoo.com!   Please put PBD winner in the subject line.  You each have 2 weeks to reply of the prizes go back into the prize pool.

OK some updates.  I have been working on some things for my blog and I have some exciting changes coming in 2012.  A face lift (no botex..) some new features, and LOTS of Candy to be given away--

I have read all your comments and hear that you want more layouts!  Well I will admit that cards take a whole lot less time but I will make sure to have more layouts and make cards more of a secondary feature in the new year.  Can you believe that it is almost Thanksgiving!  I bought my turkey this weekend and have no clue what stuffing I want to make--any suggestions would be a huge help--was thinking oyster or sausage--but I need to find just the right one--I know yall will come to my resuce.

Make it a great one-

Hello Kitty Blog Hop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello everyone and welcome to the Hello Kitty Blog Hop! We have lots of FABULOUS projects and prizes for you today, so make sure you make a stop on every blog! This hop is a 2 day hop, so you have plenty of time to get through all of the blogs. If you've arrived here from (person before you)'s blog you're on the right track! If you're stopping by my blog today and want to start at the beginning, please visit Emily's blog (link http://www.createserendipity.net/)

My project was super simple.  I used the Cricut Art Philosopy Cartridge from CTMH and the Hello Kitty Greetings Cartridge.  I cut the door hanger from the Art Philosopy Cartride in red.  This was cut witht the fit to page function on the Cricut.
I cut the cute winking Kitty face at 4" so it would cover most of the box on the door hanger.  The face was only three cuts so in total this project was only 4 cuts!!! I love a simple project.  The black and white paper is from CTMH and the red glitter paper is from SU--I used a scrap for this one!



Don't forget that to have a chance to win the grand prize you must stop by each blog along the hop! Good Luck to you all.

Baby you can drive my car.........

Well maybe!  As I shared on Friday, I got a new car and have gotten some emails for pics--so here goes.  I am not bragging--just sharing!! (LOL) I wish I would have gotten one of these years ago.
Here she is with the TOP up.  It's a 2012 VW Eos--and I am in love!!!! it drives great, the radio is awesome, and the option between a convertible or a sunroof is amazing
Here she is with the top down.  I think it was down all weekend--even Sunday night when I went to the airport to pick up a friend at 11 PM.  All I have to say is heated seats and heater do wonders on a cool night!
The view from the drivers seat--
I must admit that it was sort of unplanned.  I was going to trade in next spring but the deal was too good and once I went for a test drive--I knew I had to take it home.
Make it a great one-

The EYES have it

Well it looks like we all survived another halloween--I had to fly to NYC so there was not tricks or treats for me!  For each of the major holidays I like to make my staff a goodie bag so this year is was all about EYES for Halloween.
As you can see my scrap room is almost ready to show but at least I can start creating-been on withdraw cause I have not been able to play with paper and my ATG gun!
Here is a close up. I used basic black and white cardstock from CTMH.  The ziplock bags are from Michaels.  The sentiment is from Pink By Design and the Eye is a stamp I found in KC when I was there in early September.  The eyeball gumballs were from Target!
So for the eye; I used versa mark ink and black CTMH embossing powder for the base.  I used CTMH markers to color the center of the eye and for the red bits I just colored over the embossing.  

The sentiment is from Pink By Desing Ghostly Greetings stamp set and stamped with Daisy White ink from CTMH.
Needless to say they were a hit at the office on Monday--
Thanks for stopping by and make it a great one-
